Dubjunky's rat65

Post by resinmonkey »

Sure josh won't mind me posting a few pics here - if for no other reason than to thank all those that have supplied parts - and to appeal to everyone else that might be able to help!

Joshy gets married in March and the 65 has to be their wedding car so fingers out boys - who's not busy?

So true boys - rotisserie is the way forward - makes me want to start a new project of my own - next time i'll park a bit further from the hedge before mounting the spit tho :lol:

almost got some shape back in the passenger side - crossmembers tophats and outriggers sorted - neet to refit cargo doors to trial outer sill - got to drill out all the smapped bolts and retap first tho :x

then i think we'll be getting the front doors off - refitting floors in the cab and rolling on to the drivers side :lol:
